{{task|Mathematics}} In [[wp:linear algebra|linear algebra]], [[wp:Cramer's rule|Cramer's rule]] is an explicit formula for the solution of a [[wp:system of linear equations|system of linear equations]] with as many equations as unknowns, valid whenever the system has a unique solution. It expresses the solution in terms of the determinants of the (square) coefficient matrix and of matrices obtained from it by replacing one column by the vector of right hand sides of the equations.

Given : \left{\begin{matrix}a_1x + b_1y + c_1z&= {\color{red}d_1}\a_2x + b_2y + c_2z&= {\color{red}d_2}\a_3x + b_3y + c_3z&= {\color{red}d_3}\end{matrix}\right.

which in matrix format is

: \begin{bmatrix} a_1 & b_1 & c_1 \\ a_2 & b_2 & c_2 \\ a_3 & b_3 & c_3 \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix} x \\ y \\ z \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix} {\color{red}d_1} \\ {\color{red}d_2} \\ {\color{red}d_3} \end{bmatrix}.

Then the values of x, y and z can be found as follows:

:x = \frac{\begin{vmatrix} {\color{red}d_1} & b_1 & c_1 \\ {\color{red}d_2} & b_2 & c_2 \\ {\color{red}d_3} & b_3 & c_3 \end{vmatrix} } { \begin{vmatrix} a_1 & b_1 & c_1 \\ a_2 & b_2 & c_2 \\ a_3 & b_3 & c_3 \end{vmatrix}}, \quad y = \frac {\begin{vmatrix} a_1 & {\color{red}d_1} & c_1 \\ a_2 & {\color{red}d_2} & c_2 \\ a_3 & {\color{red}d_3} & c_3 \end{vmatrix}} {\begin{vmatrix} a_1 & b_1 & c_1 \\ a_2 & b_2 & c_2 \\ a_3 & b_3 & c_3 \end{vmatrix}}, \text{ and }z = \frac { \begin{vmatrix} a_1 & b_1 & {\color{red}d_1} \\ a_2 & b_2 & {\color{red}d_2} \\ a_3 & b_3 & {\color{red}d_3} \end{vmatrix}} {\begin{vmatrix} a_1 & b_1 & c_1 \\ a_2 & b_2 & c_2 \\ a_3 & b_3 & c_3 \end{vmatrix} }.

;Task Given the following system of equations:

: \begin{cases} 2w-x+5y+z=-3 \\ 3w+2x+2y-6z=-32 \\ w+3x+3y-z=-47 \\ 5w-2x-3y+3z=49 \\ \end{cases}

solve for w, x, y and z, using Cramer's rule.

Fortran

In ''Numerical Methods That Work (Usually)'', in the section What ''not'' to compute, F. S. Acton remarks "...perhaps we should be glad he didn't resort to Cramer's rule (still taught as the practical method in some high schools) and solve his equations as the ratios of determinants - a process that requires labor proportional to N! if done in the schoolboy manner. The contrast with N3 can be startling!" And further on, "Having hinted darkly at my computational fundamentalism, it is probably time to commit to a public heresy by denouncing recursive calculations. I have ''never'' seen a numerical problem arising from the physical world that was best calculated by a recursive subroutine..."

Since this problem requires use of Cramer's rule, one might as well be hung for a sheep instead of a lamb, so the traditions of Old Fortran and heavy computation will be ignored and the fearsome RECURSIVE specification employed so that the determinants will be calculated recursively, all the way down to N = 1 even though the N = 2 case is easy. This requires F90 and later. Similarly, the MODULE protocol will be employed, even though there is no significant context to share. The alternative method for calculating a determinant involves generating permutations, a tiresome process.

Array passing via the modern arrangements of F90 is a source of novel difficulty to set against the slight convenience of not having to pass an additional parameter, N. Explicitly, at least. There are "secret" additional parameters when an array is being passed in the modern way, which are referred to by the new SIZE function. Anyway, for an order N square matrix, the array ''must'' be declared A(N,N), and specifically not something like A(100,100) with usage only of elements up to N = 7, say, because the locations in storage of elements in use would be quite different from those used by an array declared A(7,7). This means that the array must be re-declared for each different size usage, a tiresome and error-inviting task. One-dimensional arrays do not have this problem, but they do have to be "long enough" so B and X might as well be included. This also means that the auxiliary matrices needed within the routines have to be made the right size, and fortunately they can be declared in a way that requests this without the blather of ALLOCATE, this being a protocol introduced by Algol in the 1960s. Unfortunately, there is no scheme such as in pl/i to declare AUX "like" A, so some grotesquery results. And in the case of function DET which needs an array of order N - 1, when its recursion bottoms out with N = 1 it will have declared MINOR(0,0), a rather odd situation that fortunately evokes no complaint, and a test run in which its "value" was written out by WRITE (6,*) MINOR produced a blank line: no complaint there either, presumably because zero elements were being sent forth and so there was no improper access of ... nothing.

With matrices, there is a problem all the way from the start in 1958. Everyone agrees that a matrix should be indexed as A(''row'',''column'') and that when written out, rows should run down the page and columns across. This is unexceptional and the F90 function MATMUL follows this usage. However, Fortran has always stored its array elements in what is called "column major" order, which is to say that element A(1,1) is followed by element A(2,1) in storage, not A(1,2). Thus, if an array is written (or read) by something like WRITE (6,) A, consecutive elements, written along a line, will be A(1,1), A(2,1), A(3,1), ... So, subroutine SHOWMATRIX is employed to write the matrix out in the desired form, and to read the values into the array, an explicit loop is used to place them where expected rather than just READ(INF,) A

Similarly, if instead a DATA statement were used to initialise the array for the example problem, and it looked something like

      DATA A/2, -1,  5,  1
     1       3,  2,  2, -6
     2       1,  3,  3, -1
     3       5, -2, -3,  3/

(ignoring integer/floating-point issues) thus corresponding to the layout of the example problem, there would need to be a statement A = TRANSPOSE(A) to obtain the required order.

I have never seen an explanation of why this choice was made for Fortran.

Oddly, the Compaq Visual Fortran F90/95 compiler is confused by the usage "BAD IDEA" instead of "BADIDEA" - spaces are not normally relevant in Fortran source. Anyway, file Test.dat has been filled with the numbers of the example, as follows:


4           /The order, for A.x = b.
2  -1   5   1,  -3    /First row of A, b
3   2   2  -6, -32    /Second row...
1   3   3  -1, -47     third row.
5  -2  -3   3,  49    /Last row.


Fortran's free-form allows a comma, a tab, and spaces between numbers, and regards the / as starting a comment, but, because each row is read separately, once the required five (N + 1) values have been read, no further scanning of the line takes place and the next READ statement will start with a new line of input. So the / isn't needed for the third row, as shown. Omitted values lead to confusion as the input process would read additional lines to fill the required count and everything gets out of step. Echoing input very soon after it is obtained is helpful in making sense of such mistakes.

For more practical use it would probably be better to constrain the freedom somewhat, perhaps requiring that all the N + 1 values for a row appear on one input record. In such a case, the record could first be read into a text variable (from which the data would be read) so that if a problem arises the text could be printed as a part of the error message. But, this requires guessing a suitably large length for the text variable so as to accommodate the longest possible input line.

Output:


Order 4 matrix A, as follows...
|       2.000      -1.000       5.000       1.000|
|       3.000       2.000       2.000      -6.000|
|       1.000       3.000       3.000      -1.000|
|       5.000      -2.000      -3.000       3.000|
In the scheme A.x = b, b =    -3.000000  -32.000000  -47.000000   49.000000
    Via Cramer's rule, x =     2.000000  -12.000000   -4.000000    1.000000
 That was interesting.

And at this point I suddenly noticed that the habits of Old Fortran are not so easily suppressed: all calculations are done with double precision. Curiously enough, for the specific example data, the same results are obtained if all variables are integer.

    val d = IntArray(n) { -1 }  // direction = 1 or -1
    var sign = 1
    val perms = mutableListOf<IntArray>()
    val signs = mutableListOf<Int>()

    fun permute(k: Int) {
        if (k >= n) {
            perms.add(p.copyOf())
            signs.add(sign)
            sign *= -1
            return
        }

            p[q[k]] = z
            p[q[k] + d[k]] = k
            q[z] = q[k]

Using the GNU Scientific Library, we define the values:

var [const] GSL=Import("zklGSL");	// libGSL (GNU Scientific Library)
A:=GSL.Matrix(4,4).set(2,-1, 5, 1,
		       3, 2, 2,-6,
		       1, 3, 3,-1,
		       5,-2,-3, 3);
b:=GSL.Vector(4).set(-3,-32,-47,49);

First, just let GSL solve:

A.AxEQb(b).format().println();

Actually implement Cramer's rule: {{Trans|Julia}}

fcn cramersRule(A,b){
   b.len().pump(GSL.Vector(b.len()),'wrap(i){ // put calculations into new Vector
      A.copy().setColumn(i,b).det();
   }).close()/A.det();
}
cramersRule(A,b).format().println();
